Esteemed allies of the Crown,
We are informing you that, following the prior announcement to the Empire of Kusari and the lack of response, the Armed Forces of the Kingdom of Bretonia are hereby initiating an operation against Fort de Bregancon effective immediately, in order to pacify the border with the Gallic Union and create a buffer-zone that will jointly remain under the protection and sovereignty of the signatories of the Treaty of Harris, First Chapter. This marks the third such attempt at routing forces friendly to the Gallic state in the Orkney system after past damage has been repaired hastily.
We solemnly hope that the Crayter Republic will aid us in the weeks to come against any attempt by Union forces to breach the blockade or otherwise attack NATO-member vessels. Further, we wish to open negotiations about the anteriorly-mentioned buffer-zone that will constitute a significant step in increasing the Kingdom and the Republic's capabilities in the deeper regions of the Taus.
That is all. Please inform us of any concerns there may be.
